At night, on the "Stone Crab", everyone sat together to discuss the day's affairs. Annie said bluntly: "It's really inexplicable for you to be a 'Zhenhai Longhu'. You only assume obligations and don't enjoy the rights. You are mixed up with these shrimp soldiers and crab generals. This is not the first time we have gone to war. Last time, I lost all my skin and lost half of my life in a few months. This time we have to help the mermaids fight again. They are obviously taking advantage of us. Why go there? This trip into troubled waters?”
Xueting glanced at Shui Lingxing, who was opposite her with her head lowered and said nothing, and used her eyes to stop Annie from continuing to speak. Shi Si continued: "From your description, the mermaid clan is a mess, each with its own differences. Thoughts, it’s hard to help with this. They need to rely on my brother, but they will probably be on guard against him. If they win the battle, they may not take him as their leader, but if they lose, then my brother will definitely be blamed for this. Come and recite. There have been many such things in history. Now that you are a life-saving straw, everyone will regard you as the savior. Whether you want it or not, they will put you on the altar. It sounds nice to give you supreme power, but in fact You are the one who pushes forward to block swords and thunder. Once you are unable to achieve the victory they need, they don't care that you were dragged up to this altar by force. Anyway, you are guilty of unforgivable crimes and are despised by everyone. They will attack you. The kind that throws vegetable leaves and rotten eggs on your body. Regardless of whether this job is dangerous or not, the important thing is, why do we care about this matter?"
Seeing Shui Lingxing's head lowering lower and lower, Xueting didn't know what to say. From the perspective of sympathy, she wanted to help Shui Lingxing, but from the perspective of everyone's rights and interests, it was obvious that this matter would only cause trouble. Look, No benefit.
At this time, Tian Yong, who had been deep in thought, spoke up in a rare move: "I don't want to comment on whether I want to get involved in this matter or not. My life was given by the boss. I will do whatever he asks me to do, even if he asks me to do it." Go sniper God, I won't even frown. I just want to say that if we really want to do this, the first step is to carry out intelligence work, and the second step is to solve the problem of combat power. The battlefield is everywhere The area covered by the entire ocean is larger than the previous two world wars. How we organize a war of such a scale is also a brand new topic for us." Everyone looked at Tian Yong in surprise, not expecting it. This reckless man is able to see things with such depth now. Could it be that his IQ has developed again after the age of 30?
Shui Lingxing seemed to have been organizing the words for a long time, and then said softly: "I know best what Ling Hao's 'Zhenhai Longhu' is like. Two years ago today, he was still an ordinary person. The shark tribe is too Our team is so huge that we can only count the number of people in our hands. I cannot ask you to fight such a battle with no chance of winning. You should leave here in a while, go to Pingding Mountain to collect the treasure and return to China."
Xueting felt a sadness in her heart and couldn't help but ask: "What about you?"
"My father and my tribe are here. The survival of the mermaid tribe has nothing to do with you, but it is closely related to me. I want to stay. No matter what fate I will face in the future, I will go with my tribe. Face it. You don’t have to worry about me, don’t forget, I’ve already died once, there’s no way the sharks can kill me again.”
The cabin fell into silence again. Except for Shui Lingxing, everyone else secretly glanced at Ling Hao, who had never spoken. The only one who could really make the final decision was him.
Ling Hao finally spoke: "I have listened to all your opinions. You have followed me over the years, and you have suffered a lot and made some money. Thanks to the trust of all my brothers and sisters, I alone make all decisions.
It is a very difficult thing to help others make decisions, especially in an industry such as ours, which is extremely risky. Over the years, I have been cautious, walking on thin ice, for fear that my decision will accidentally harm any of you. Fortunately, I did not live up to it.
Everyone trusts me. Even though I suffered a lot of injuries, in the end everyone still had to stand here. Maybe there is an element of luck in it, but I believe you will not deny that I am still responsible for your safety.
"Ling Hao's eyes swept across everyone, and everyone nodded in conviction.
"Okay, then I will talk about my decision. I decided to participate in this battle and win it. There will definitely be danger, so I will not ask you to be with me this time, especially Anne.
The company's affairs still need to be handled by you. After all, you are our God of Wealth. Our wealth is invested in the jewelry group. If you don't help us keep an eye on it, we will not feel at ease when we are fighting outside. Others, if you don't want to participate
You can also withdraw from this mission. Don't worry, this will definitely not affect the relationship between us."
As soon as Ling Hao finished speaking, Annie became anxious: "I was just talking about the matter, not greedy for life or death, so why should I be excluded? Everyone has feelings for you and is willing to live and die together. Don't I have no regard for you?
Love, don't you want to live and die with you? Since that's what I said, I still want to participate. If you don't take me with you, I will hate you forever!" Tears rolled in her eyes, Ling Hao
What she said just now seemed to have caused her great grievance.
Ling Hao was a little panicked and didn't know what he said wrongly, but looking at the situation, if he didn't take her with him, the boat of friendship would sink immediately. "Look at you, why are you so anxious? Is there any skill in the industry?
Specialize, this mission may take a long time. I don’t want you to take care of everyone’s escape. If you insist on going to fight with us, I won’t stop you. Anyway, I will stop you for such a long time.
Once?"
"That's right, that's right, let's all go. No matter what the boss does, we will follow him. This is already the meaning of our lives. If we can't be with the boss, we won't even have a taste of eating. Just say it, boss, this battle should be
How to fight?" Since Tian Yong had Xueting, his emotional intelligence has indeed improved. When he saw Annie getting angry, he quickly tried to smooth things over, and kept secretly winking at Ling Hao, which made Xueting and Shi Si almost laugh.
The sound comes.
Ling Hao was too lazy to pay attention to this guy. Since he would be angry with anyone who asked him to quit, he didn't mention who didn't participate: "I know, this time may be really thankless, but there are some things we must do.
. I won't mention the responsibility of "Zhenhai Longhu". Anyway, I don't feel much about it, but after all, we are people who live by the sea, and the balance in the sea will also affect our work and life. How many thousands
For many years, these intelligent creatures in the sea have been living in compliance with nature, living in a small country with few people. But suddenly one day a certain ethnic group began to centralize power and expand its military. What does this mean? Human history is a mirror. If there is no
If humans manage it, the sharks will dominate the oceans within a dozen years. Development without checks and balances will inevitably lose control. Maybe you don’t know how strong the reproductive power of the sharks is. A female shark can lay three eggs a year.
Two to three eggs are laid at a time. In the past, this was because the various shark families were scattered all over the world, and the number of people in each settlement was not too large. Therefore, there would still be some natural enemies that could hunt down the young sharks, but once the sharks established a country
, dominate the ocean, and after they have killed all their natural enemies, the sea will inevitably become overrun with sharks, fish resources will be quickly depleted, and may even trigger another round of mass extinction. We can accept that our descendants will face a land filled with only sharks.
Is there an ocean where humans exist? The sharks are ferocious and will definitely attack human ships once they overflow. Can we accept the ocean becoming a restricted area for humans? If the sharks eat all the other creatures in the sea, will they miss the largest creature on land?
What about the species—human beings? The consequences are unpredictable, but they won’t be good. Although I don’t have any personal heroism complex, it’s fine if I haven’t encountered such a thing, but now that I have encountered it, you say, can we
Don’t you care?”
Ling Hao's words were impassioned, with the demeanor of an old political commissar. Finally, he walked up to Shui Lingxing and put his hands on his shoulders: "Besides, to me, this is not an injustice on the road.
Draw your sword to help. Shui Lingxing has been with us for two years. We have experienced life and death together, and faced danger together. We are brothers in the same team. If something happens to our brother's family, can we just stand by and watch? I don't care what the 'Wenhai family' or '
Beihai Family', as long as Shui Lingxing is willing to risk everything to protect it, I, Ling Hao, am also willing to protect it with her!"
This was said so beautifully that Tian Yong almost stood up and applauded. Shui Lingxing broke through his defense instantly and threw himself into Ling Hao's arms, intending to vent his overwhelming emotions. Annie squeezed in between the two of them, taking Ling's place.
Hao's position, and pulled the latter aside. The emotional scene ended in a comic way.
The next step was to study the strategy, and it took a full night of deliberation before the results were reached. The next day, the group entered the city again. In the main hall, Shui Pei and Popang looked at Ling Hao anxiously, and the latter did not
He said bluntly, "We are willing to help the mermaid clan solve this crisis, but we have conditions. As long as you agree to my conditions, we can take action immediately. Of course, if you don't agree,
I don’t force it, you can ask someone else. The continent of Mu has been sinking for too long. The affairs of the seven tribes are no longer the obligation of our "Zhenhai Longhu". Helping is a matter of personal preference, and not helping is also a duty. I hope you can understand.
.”
Shui Pei and Popang were very happy at first, but when they heard Ling Hao say that there were conditions, they looked at each other and looked embarrassed. Finally, Shui Pei said: "Humans have a saying, which is to use money to replace others.
We completely understand this to eliminate disasters, but both of our families fled here from their hometowns. We don’t have many things that are valuable to you humans, but there are a few boxes of pearls and some red corals, and the quantity is also small.
It’s not too much, I hope you don’t mind it.”
Ling Hao smiled and said: "I have no intention of asking you for property. Even if I do, I would ask it from the family named Hai. You should listen carefully to my request."
The two patriarchs were relieved and sat down to listen carefully. There were people next to them who were responsible for recording.
"Obviously, this is a war between ethnic groups, and it will even evolve into a world war in the ocean. My request will be directly related to the outcome of this war, so I hope you will pay enough attention to it. First
, I will formulate a strategy to completely bankrupt the Sharman race's military invasion plan, but I will not draw the human race into this war on a large scale, and I believe you will not want the human race to intervene in this matter. Then, you still have to fight your own battle.
Fight by myself, that is to say, I will serve as the commander-in-chief and command the mermaids and other ethnic groups to launch a counterattack against the mermaid clan. To put it bluntly, I want the mermaid clan to command all matters related to the war, including soldiers, resources, rewards and punishments, and population transfer.
Wait, if you don't agree, let's not talk about it. Secondly, I need as much information about the Shark Tribe and the Mermaid Tribe as possible. No matter how many spies you send out next and how many people die, the information must be obtained. This is
It is a cruel war. There is no one who will not die in the war. I believe you have seen too much blood and bones of your tribe. I can also understand your feelings of cherishing the lives of your tribe. But there is a story about humans boiling frogs in warm water. I believe you have all heard of it.
, the survival of the mermaid clan can only be fought for and defended by the lives of the mermaid clan. Begging and moral kidnapping cannot buy a real living space. Only a nation with burning blood in its heart and not afraid of death is qualified to continue its inheritance in this vast sea.
Go down, instead of lingering as slaves or vassals. I hope you can reflect on it and rediscover the soul of the mermaid clan."
Shui Pei was told with embarrassment. The law of survival in the ocean is the same as the law of the jungle. Nations and countries that rely on others for liberation are only qualified to become vassals and puppets of others. There are too many such examples in human history. If you want to
To stand in the forest of species with dignity, the first thing to do is to strive for self-improvement.
Popang looked embarrassed and said timidly: "Look, we are just two families of the mermaid clan. In fact, we cannot represent the entire clan at all, especially the 'Deep Sea Family' and the 'Wandering Family'. We cannot be their representatives at all."
Oh God."
"Don't worry about this. I will handle other families' matters. You just need to agree to my conditions within your jurisdiction."
"Okay, we agree. In fact, last night we realized that our intelligence on the Shark clan was at a disadvantage, and we will send a large number of agents to investigate the intelligence." The two clan leaders agreed happily. In fact, they had no other choice.
room.
After staying for another day, the agents sent out came back one after another. After sorting out the intelligence, it was now known that just 15 nautical miles south of the shipwreck cemetery, more than 3,000 sharks were stationed in a trench. The general who led the troops
Her name is Mia, a female siren who has lived for more than five hundred years.
"This information is enough for now. Two clan leaders, order a thousand mermaid warriors to follow me and see how I fight." Ling Hao said the next sentence very simply, and then led Shui Lingxing, Tian Yong and the others.
